Wasn't this quote from a white artist?

Yes.

Cool, seemed like people felt as though only the hive and black people noticed how historically Black artists seldom receive the grammy for AOTY.

Katy Perry has zero Grammy's
Brittany Spears has like 1

What's your point?

Speaking of Katy why is she able to throw a rapper on her songs and get Urb/Rhy airplay but no black artists can get play on Pop stations?

Let's call a thing a thing and take bey out of the equation. Stats wise Rihanna is amongst the most popular pop artists of the last 10 years. Now explain why she hasn't won 1 pop award.
Why mega hits like umbrella, don't stop the music, we found love and diamonds didn't snatch a SOTY or ROTY mess out.

Why are Alicia and bey the only ones who won SOTY. As big as rnb was last decade?? Or even the late 90s. The boy is mine, say my name, crazy in love, irreplaceable...why have none of these won.

Now let's dive into AOTY.
Technically Lauryn is the only black female who won. Whitney won for a soundtrack that was crafted by a white man and Natalie's album is a cover album.
Y'all saw the legion of old white men that got on stage with Adele to accept AOTY. Bey and her black collaborators will never get that honor.

ROTY only 5 black females. Last one being in 1994. Even tho black females are the tastemakers of the music industry.

I don't even feel bad or disappointed.
I wish I had looked at these numbers before hand. It's been an eye opening experience.

Neither one can't sing for shit. So they are automatically dead on arrival for any best vocal award.
you mentioned Rihanna and popular pop songs not winning for SOTY or ROTY  :dead:

Right, because a song like California gurls / I kissed a girl  are of the same caliber as a diamonds or umbrella.
Have you checked metacritic for how Britney and Katy are reviewed? Katy in particular.
